hmm its different.

I don't mind it.. because its quite easy yet quite boring and you can blab on about anything.

The Tempest is going to be the first english text since year 8's to kill a mocking bird that I actually read...

2U english is just boring though but I guess you need to do it

Yeah, could be worse

We're doing physical journeys, so that's pretty easy to rattle on about in a piece of writing. But damn the paper will be on area of journeys. Still it's better than change I think, that requires thought beforehand....:eek:

muahahha

and that i must say is quite the unexpected twist....and i thought they screwed our year over :)


i recommend doing Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" or Scorsecese(sp?) "Apocalypse Now!" too brilliant texts as support which embody everything in the courses(at first glance :) )
